Energy dissipation in the regulators using straight wall baffles

Dissipating the high kinetic energy of an open channel flow under sluice gates can have a significant impact on eliminating scoring of the riverbed at the downstream. This paper discusses the outcome of an experimental study consisting of 28 runs, with the aim of achieving minimum hydrodynamic forces and maximum energy dissipation downstream of hydraulic structures through stilling basins with directional diverting blocks, DDBs and straight wall baffle, and SWB. Stilling basins with a distinct configuration were made for this purpose. The hydraulic parameters that were involved were evaluated and experimentally analyzed using a rectangular flume in the hydraulic laboratory of the University of Thi-Qar, Thi-Qar, Iraq. Two different kinds of DDB models were made of wood with a triangular form, and the striate line impact wall had indistinct dimensions. The study showed that the configuration characterized by two rows of DDB with SWB between them is the most effective in dispersing energy. Out of all the suggested constructions, the DDB are more effective with two or more rows, rather than the SWB, but they are subjected to forces in the flow direction

New Tetra-dentate Schiff Base Ligand N2O2 and Its Complexes with Some of Metal Ions: Preparation, Identification, and Studying Their Enzymatic and Biological Activities

في هذا البحث، تم تحضير ليجند جديد رباعي المخلب، بعنوان 5و3-بس (5- برومو-2-هايدروكسي بنزالدين امينو) حمض البنزويك (H3L) ، من خلال عملية التكثيف المحفز بالحامض. تم أيضًا تحضير أربعة معقدات فلزية جديدة مع أيونات Co (II) و Ni (II) و Cu (II) و Zn (II) ، من مفاعلة مولات مكافئة. تركيب الليكاند ومعقداته تم تأكيدها من خلال العديد من طرائق التوصيف، بما في ذلك الأشعة فوق البنفسجية المرئية، الأشعة تحت الحمراء، مطياف الكتلة، أطياف الرنين المغناطيسي النووي للبروتون والكاربون، الامتصاص الذري اللهبي، الحساسية المغناطيسية، وقياسات التوصيلية المولارية. أثبتت نتائج التحاليل الطيفية أن الليكاند المحضر يعمل كرابط رباعي المخلب ثنائي الشحنة السالبة ويرتبط مع ألايونات الفلزية بواسطة ذرتين من النيتروجين من مجموعتي الآزوميثين وبواسطة ذرتين من الأوكسجين من مجموعتي هيدروكسيل الفينول بعد فقدانهما لبروتونيهما. تم اقتراح بنية ثماني السطوح لجميع المعقدات المحضرة. تم فحص النشاطات (المضادة للبكتيريا) و (المضادة للفطريات) لهذه المركبات ضد بكتريا (E. coli) ، (S. aureus)، (Klebsiella spp.)، (S. epidermidis)، وفطر ال (Candida albicans). أشارت النتائج إلى أن هذه المركبات لها سلوك تثبيط معتدل. كما تمت دراسة نشاط المركبات المحضرة ضد إنزيم أستيل كولين استيراز (AChE) وتشير البيانات التي تم الحصول عليها إلى وجود سلوك تثبيط مختلف.In present work, new tetra-dentate ligand, titled 3,5-bis ((E)-5-Bromo-2-hydroxy benzylidene amino) benzoic acid (H3L), was prepared via an acid-catalyzed condensation process. New four metallic ligand complexes with Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) ions, were also prepared from the refluxing of equivalent moles. Ligand's structure and its complexes; were confirmed by numerous characterization methods, including Ultraviolet-Visible, Infrared, Mass Spectrometer, 1H and 13C Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectra, atomic absorption, magnetic moments, and molar conductivity measurements. The results of the spectroscopic analyzes proved that the prepared ligand acts as tetradentate bi-ionic ligand and it was bonded to the metal ions by two nitrogen atoms of the two azomethine groups and by two oxygen atoms of the two phenolic hydroxyl groups after losing their two protons. Octahedral structure proposed to all prepared complexes. The (anti-bacterial) and (anti-fungal) activities of these compound were screened against (E. coli, S. aureus, Klebsiella spp., S. epidermidis,), and (Candida albicans). The results indicated that these compounds have moderated inhibition behavior. The activity of the prepared compounds against Acetyl Choline Esterase Enzyme (AChE) have also studied and the obtained data indicated the presence of different inhibition behavior

Preparation and Characterization of Some Chelate Complexe with New bi-dentate (N,O)bis-Schiff base Ligand

        In this research newchelation complexes were  prepared for Cr(III), Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) ions with new bis schiff base ligand [2-(-((4-(-1-(2-phenylhydrazono)ethyl)phenyl)imino)methyl)phenol](M-Sal). The new ligand chracterized depends on (Uv-Vis, IR) spectroscopies, 1H-NMR andMass spectra. The results of flame atomic absorption indicate that (Metal:Ligand) portions were (1:1) for Cr(III), Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes and were (1:2) for Mn(II) and Co(II) complexes. The geometries of prepared complexes suggested according to the results of Uv-Vis and IR spectroscopies, magnetic susceptibility, molar conductance and flame atomic absorptionwhich were squar plannar for Ni(II)and Cu(II) complexes while the rest complexes have the octahedral geometry
